Details: Amazon.ca Previous experience has already informed us that Trans Am hearts the 80s. This time around, however, the Maryland trio's fourth album proper, TA, sees them ditch the Tron route taken on Futureworld and Red Line and tear along a Lost Highway-meets-24 Hour Party People trajectory, and faster than you can say "retrofuturist". Resist that temptation to place Trans Am in the de rigeur electro-chancers bin though, and be rewarded with freakishly wailing Joy Division guitars, twisted on their heads and bullwhipped with pulsating Krautrock synths. Submit to the blistering attack of an electrocuted Fugazi, while alongside an unseen entity cries quietly--sans vocoder these days--and surreptitiously slips its tongue in your ear. TA is as diverse as it is urgent, and as delicious as it is unsettling. Its slithering technoid frequencies are to be savoured, preferably in the dark. And alone.--Leslie Gilotti Product Description Trans Am
